Today is part of the 4th week that myself and those that I work with have been doing a little challenge to get to our goal weights, my goal is to lose a total of 28lbs and then to review how I feel within myself.

Each week we're doing weightloss challenges that will hopefully enable us to experience something different from our typical habits and make positive changes to our lifestyle in order to reach our goal.

Week one: 

Start Weight: 16 stone 2lbs. 
Start BMI: 33.4

This weeks challenge was to drink 2 litres of water daily, this was particularly difficult as I'm not a huge fan of the taste of plain water. I typically drink fizzy drinks i.e. Cola or Dr Pepper, nonetheless I pushed on! It wasn't until around Thursday that I experienced major difficulty, I go to the gym twice a week and Thursday just happened to be one of these gym sessions. I felt bloated and sick due to the amount of water that was swilling around in my stomach.

What I've taken from this Challenge? 
Since this challenge, I've struggled to keep up with 2L a day, but I have increased my daily water intake and almost gone cold turkey on fizzy drinks.

End weight: 15 stone 12lb 
End BMI: 32.5
Body fat %: 32.4%
